"Forgive? How do you want me to forgive? It is because I have forgiven him time and time again that he is so unbridled now! "
Li Er's angry voice roared in every corner of the Taiji Palace. Only now did people see Li Er's determination to reward Li Zexuan!
"Your Majesty, Minister Wei's words are indeed inappropriate, but it is not enough to warrant punishment. Your Majesty, please reconsider!"
Zhangsun Wuji also stood out.
These were two separate matters. He indeed did not support Wei Zheng's words, but seeing that Li Er was about to punish the minister, he still had to step forward to stop it. This example could not be set!
"Your Majesty, please reconsider!"
Since Zhangsun Wuji had stood out to plead for leniency, the other ministers could not remain indifferent. Instantly, a large group of people bowed.
When Li Er saw this, he was so angry that he did not know what to say. At this moment, Wei Zheng recklessly said, "This old minister's life and death are not important, but as Your Majesty's minister, this minister should think for Your Majesty's country. Giving Lantian County to the Marquis of Yong 'an is against the law, and this minister believes that the Marquis of Yong' an will not agree! The people of Lantian County will also not agree! "
Li Er was so angry that he laughed, "Good! Since Wei Xuancheng is so confident, then do you dare to make a bet with me? "
Wei Zheng said without hesitation, "Why wouldn't I dare? But how does Your Majesty want to bet? "
Li Er said with his hands behind his back, "Hmph! Let's bet on my decision. Whether Li Zexuan agrees or not, whether the people of Lantian County agree or not! With two days as the limit, I hope that after two days, you, Wei Xuancheng, can still be so unyielding! Hmph! Court dismissed! "
Without giving Wei Zheng a chance to refuse, Li Er flicked his sleeves and announced the dismissal of the court session.
"Hey! Wei Xuancheng, Wei Xuancheng! Don't you have nothing better to do? Your Majesty wants to give Little Xuan some land, what does that have to do with you? Jumping out in such a hurry to object, isn't this just finding trouble for yourself! "
The officials had been hungry all morning and wanted to go home to eat. When Li Er announced the end of the court session, the officials went back to their homes. Cheng Yaojin walked to Wei Zheng's side and patted his arm.
As one of Li Zexuan's elders, he naturally stood on Li Zexuan's side in this matter. However, Li Zexuan's temper was too big in the morning assembly, so he didn't want to add fuel to the fire. He could only mock Wei Zheng after the assembly ended.
"Hmph! Lu Guogong, this old man is wholeheartedly devoted to the public. I only care about the matter, not the person! No matter who is involved in this matter today, this old man will come out and stop His Majesty from acting willfully! "
Wei Zheng rolled his eyes and snorted at Cheng Yaojin.
"Hey! What a stubborn old man! Just you wait! I, Old Cheng, don't even need to look to know that you're going to lose this bet with His Majesty! Don't cry when the time comes! Haha! "
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand, not willing to waste any more time with a one-track minded person like Wei Zheng. He left Taiji Palace and returned home.
…
"Damn it! This Wei Xuancheng has repeatedly contradicted me. It's really hateful. It seems that I have been too lenient with him in the past! "
After the assembly, Li Er came to the Sweet Dew Hall. Recalling everything that had happened in the morning assembly, he became angrier and angrier. In the end, he pushed away the memorials on the table and roared angrily.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't be angry!"
At this time, Empress Zhangsun happened to walk in from outside the hall. Her complexion seemed to be much better than two days ago.
"Guanyin Maid? Come, come and sit! "
When Li Er saw that it was Empress Zhangsun, he quickly restrained the anger on his face. After Zhangsun sat beside him, he asked with concern, "How is Changle recovering?"
Empress Zhangsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Changle has completely recovered after two days of recuperation by Doctor Sun. This morning, this concubine followed Changle and practiced Taiji Fist twice!"
Li Er immediately forgot some of the unpleasantness in the assembly and said with a smile, "Good! Good! Good! Guanyin Maid, you have to practice Taiji Fist every day in the future. If I have time, I will practice with you! I heard from the Marquis of Yong 'an that even if ordinary people can't sense Qi when practicing Taiji Fist, if they practice more, it will only be good for the body! When the locusts flood this summer, the palace's food must have locusts every day. In the long run, Guanyin Maid, your Qi will definitely slowly improve! "
Li Chengqian's prediction was right. After the incident with Changle, there was indeed a craze for Taiji Fist in the palace!
Not only Empress Zhangsun, but some of the concubines, princes, and princesses in the harem also followed to practice Taiji Fist. Now, Li Er could be considered to have performed a real-life version of "Delicious"!
Last year, when the academy used locusts to make the delicacy "Soaring to Heaven", Li Er wanted to find trouble with Li Zexuan after learning the truth. Unexpectedly, he was now looking forward to eating locusts in the palace again!
Yes, delicious!
The changes in the world could be said to be wonderful!
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. This concubine understands!"
If there was a chance to live longer, she believed that no one would be willing to die early. Why wouldn't Empress Zhangsun want to live a healthy life with Li Er? Therefore, when she practiced Taiji Fist, she was more serious than anyone else. At this time, she looked at the scattered memorials on the ground and bent down to pick them up while smiling softly.
"On the way here, this concubine heard that Wei Zuocheng contradicted Your Majesty in the morning court. I think Your Majesty should be worried about this matter just now?"
"Humph! That stubborn old man! "
When Wei Zheng was mentioned, Li Er immediately became angry. He briefly recounted what had happened in the morning to Empress Zhangsun. At the end, he couldn't help but add, "Guanyin Maid, do you think this Wei Zheng is arrogant because he is pampered? He completely took our previous tolerance for him as indulgence! He actually compared me to King Zhou of Shang and compared himself to Shang Gan? Humph! If I were King Zhou of Shang, Wei Zheng would have died who knows how many times! "
In fact, the reason why Li Er was so angry today, other than Wei Zheng's attitude being a bit reckless, was that he had already promised to bestow Lantian County to Li Zexuan yesterday. Moreover, his father Li Yuan was still present at that time. In this way, if he really couldn't fulfill his promise because of Wei Zheng, not only would he lose his prestige, he would also become a joke in Li Yuan's eyes!
This was absolutely not allowed to happen!
Li Er had a very deep obsession in his heart, and that was to be an emperor for all eternity. No matter how bad it was, he had to be better than Li Yuan. He wanted to prove to his father that no one was more suitable to sit on the throne than him!
"Haha! Your Majesty, please calm down! That last bet of yours has caused Wei Zuocheng to suffer miserably this time! I don't know if someone will throw stones at Wei Zuocheng's house in the next two days! Pfft ~! "
Empress Zhangsun softly comforted, then thought of something and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
